Do Blacks Have Genetic Weakness to Asthma?
2007-10-01 08:22:00
Black Americans who have asthma are much more likely to visit emergency rooms or be hospitalized for the condition than their white counterparts.That's the finding of a new study that reaches the controversial conclusion that "these findings suggest that genetic differences may underlie these racial disparities."However, that genetics theory was quickly challenged by some experts in the field.Previous studies have shown that black people with asthma have worse control of their symptoms and higher rates of hospitalization and death than whites, said the authors of the new study, who noted that adjustments for socioeconomic status have not explained the disparities.The researchers, from the University of California, San Francisco, studied 678 people -- 524 white and 154 black -- who were being treated for asthma under a large health-care plan and were hospitalized between 2000 and 2004. All were interviewed at the time of hospital discharge about their health status and socioeconomic...

Qatar: Rents going up despite building boom
2007-09-25 19:55:00
18 September 2007DOHA - Property market operators find it surprising that despite a number of new buildings having been completed across the city, house rents have been going up steadily instead of showing some stability.While some in the trade blame middlemen for the malaise, there are others who find fault with property owners themselves and say their reluctance to give away new residential buildings on lower rentals is keeping the supply-demand gap yawning."There is indeed a demand for residential property, mainly coming from expatriates, but it is also a fact that there are new buildings which are ready for occupation but their owners do not want to give them away on low rents," said a real estate agent."The owners don't want the rents to fall. This is the main reason why they prefer to keep their properties vacant rather than let them out on low rentals," said Yusuf Al Mulla.He, however, added that there are a number of major housing projects which have been launched by major ...

Companies spend millions on ad placements in trimedia campaigns that encompass print, radio and television.Print, radio and television have traditionally been the main medium for marketing.

2007-09-20 14:21:00
U.S. Ambassador to India David Mulford on Wednesday called on Indian Prime Minister's Special Envoy on the nuclear deal, Shyam Saran, to discuss the future of the pact between New Delhi and Washington, the Hindu newspaper reported Thursday.Mulford sought to assess the stance Indian government might take in the light of the demand by the Left parties, whose support is crucial to Singh's coalition government, to hold it in abeyance for six months, the report quoted informed sources.Mulford has urged New Delhi to take the "last steps" toward operationalizing the deal earlier this week.The Communist Party of India, however, has warned the federal government not to buckle under U.S. pressure and let parliament debate the deal first.The sources, according to the Hindu, said Mulford also discussed the steps that should be taken to execute the deal within some months.The meeting took place ahead of a special session of the 45- nation nuclear suppliers group (NSG), where the United States ...

2007-09-20 14:17:00
The world's biggest plastics recycling processing plant, capable of recycling 60,000 tons of waste annually, has begun operating in Beijing .Operated by Beijing Incom Resources Recovery Co, the plant cost 300 million yuan ($37.5 million), Li Ping, director of the Beijing municipal industry promotion bureau, said yesterday.He said the plant's annual capacity equaled one-third of the city's total waste in plastics, and would result in 30,000 tons of clean polyester and 20,000 tons of polyester chips - equivalent to a saving of 300,000 tons of petroleum annually."The plant will contribute greatly to Beijing's energy saving endeavors," Li said.Figures from the Beijing Municipal Packing Technology Association show that discarded plastic bottles amounted to 150,000 tons in 2006 in Beijing, and will surge to 300,000 tons in 2010.Tens of thousands of migrant workers are usually employed to collect discarded plastic products.

DO YOU KNOW ABOUT MESOTHELIOMA
2007-09-19 21:34:00
Mesothelioma is a cancer that is deadly, found in people that have had exposure to asbestos. Asbestos finds its victims as it floats through the air. These airborne particles are taken into the body by unsuspecting people by simply breathing. They then get trapped within the thin lining that is inside the lungs. There is an estimated minimum of 2,500 individuals per year that are diagnosed with this deadly cancer.Although asbestos has been banned in the 1970s, there is still a severe risk today for ingesting these tiny particles. Mesothelioma has a long term inactive time. In some cases, it can be stagnant for up to 50 years before the effects are acknowledged. A vast majority of the sufferers of mesothelioma were exposed to the asbestos while working in construction jobs, doing brake work to elevators, and even in power plants and shipyards. The main timeframe for ingesting the asbestos has been narrowed down to the 1950's through the 1970's.Asbestos continues to be a serious iss...
